    Default Old coupons and people in the military

    How far back can people in the military use coupons that expire? I remember people being able to still use them for x-amount of months after they expire.

    I thought it was a year, went to prove myself right via the commissaries website, but turns out I was wrong. This is only overseas commissaries though, not the ones here in the US.

    Commissaries.com - Coupon Use

    Commissaries located in foreign overseas areas accept coupons up to six months after the expiration date stated on a coupon.
